“We need to work on reducing trade gap with other countries. But, first of all we need to enhance our capacity,” he said while meeting with the Board of Directors of Bangladesh-Malaysia Chamber of Commerce and Industry (BMCCI) led by its President Syed Moazzam Hossain at his secretariat office in the city, said a press release.

He said ready-made garment (RMG) is the biggest export earner of the country, but Bangladesh needs to encourage diversification of products in line with finding other potential export items.

He suggested to frame out a sector-specific policy demand.

Moazzam Hossain proposed for a comprehensive information policy which can play catalytic role in disseminating information among the people.

He also urged the minister to take necessary initiatives for branding Bangladesh.
